After being sent to US and UK radio stations, the full commercial release of "Cheater" was cancelled for unspecified reasons, turning the song into a promotional release. The song was then released on November 16, 2004 on The Ultimate Collection album. Background"Cheater" was written and produced by Michael Jackson, and co-written by Greg Phillinganes.[3] The song was originally intended for Jackson's seventh studio album, Bad (1987). However, it failed to make into the final track listing.[4] It was described by Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic.com as "funky, loose, and alive," saying "that it's hard not to wish that Jackson didn't fuss over his albums and just record like this all the time".[5] However, the full commercial release was cancelled for unspecified reasons, with the song being released as part of the box set.[4] As promotion of the limited edition box set from The Ultimate Collection, Epic Records distributed a sampler of the compilation featuring twelve tracks. Eight songs were previously released, while four – "Beautiful Girl", "Scared of the Moon", "We've Had Enough", and "Cheater" – remained unreleased until the compilation's release.[6] The sampler was titled Highlights From The Ultimate Collection in the United States,[7] and The Ultimate Collection Sampler in Europe.[8] A music video was also shown on some channels; it features clips from the The Dangerous Tour DVD, which was included in the same album the song appears in. Critical receptionThe song received positive critical reception. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic described this song as "good stuff" and described "Cheater" as "so funky, loose, and alive that it's hard not to wish that Jackson didn't fuss over his albums and just record like this all the time."[9] Track listing
